i agree with this. i didn't even know what the hell techno was until i
went to my first rave a number of years ago. since then i've gone on to
whole-heartedly embrace this genre of music. now i think its the best
thing since sliced bread. the point is that i owe my cognizance of techno
to 'raving.' (although such formerly underground activities are no longer
AS integral for exposure to this once underground musical form as it has
recently been proliferating mainstream culture).
